The narrative touched the soft-heart,

with invisible FIRE. Il seemed to him
he could feel Celeste's wound, and see
the blue-eyed, bird-like child with cups
of water in her hands giving drink

heights in Eden Park and read and
loiter, looking down over the vast and
shimmering vista of city. river and
